Callanetics with Callan Pinckney

55+ and doing Callanetics for the second time in my life.
I did these workouts with the VHS back in the 90's. It has been the ONLY thing that has toned me up. I stopped exercising for one reason or another and I am slowly working my way back into it. This is one workout that seniors can do without injury and it really does work. So glad they have this on DVD. - posted by Eileen on 2/3/2012
Poor quality video but good workout
The video I received is not clear DVD quality picture. Looks like a bad copy of the original VHS. The workout is good, however, and I have done it in the past with good results. - posted by Chris on 2/2/2012
The best!!!
If you are looking for a regime to really stretch and tone your muscles buy this DVD. It works. Not only do you gain strength and definition, you become more relaxed because you'll start noticing how much tension you hold in your body. - posted by Ellen on 12/13/2011
Amazing
Love, love, love it! Does all that it says it will do. Relaxing yet energizing and your body will be transformed if you stick to it. - posted by Clarice on 12/10/2011
Affirmation
I was a callanetics fan for years (VHS) and turned a lot of my friends on to it. For some reason, I quit using it in my work out routine. Lets face it...I quit working out. I went from buff do everything, to big do nothing. Don't worry, I was still productive...just not happy with how I looked. This last year has been a struggle but also a turning point. This week I was able to work out to that video from years ago. I was able to share the time with a friend who also had done it in the past. The amazing part is how my body remembered those exercises even though my mind didn't. And you have to give credit to the music. Although I am guilty of using my own at times...the timing is always in your head. So thanks for keeping her methods going strong. - posted by Dee on 10/27/2011
Hello Old Friend
Sometimes it's good to get back to basics. I exercised to Callanetics on VHS in the 80s, and then progressively went on to 'bigger and better' exercise programs. Most recently, this list includes everything from weights and classes at the gym (Body Pump, Yoga and Pilates reformer & mat classes),to Brazil Butt Lift and T. Anderson Method workouts (among others). Though not disputing the effectiveness of any of the aforementioned, I must admit, those routines are tough on an 'old' gal like I (horrifyingly) find myself to be, and they've rudely served to teach me the limits of my body these days. Callanetics, on the other hand, is a gentle yet highly effective program - I'd forgotten just how effective. Callan's pace is measured, almost meditative, and forces you to take your time and get the moves down correctly. Her instruction is flawless and if you're tired of bulking up or sagging down - even if you aren't of the age where you remember working out in the spandex worn in this DVD, give Callanetics a try. It feels so good and it works - imagine that. - posted by Laureen on 9/27/2011
callanetics
Bought this to replace the original VHS format. For me it's the best. The exercises are doable and extremely effective. - posted by Joyce on 9/15/2011
First time customer
I was looking for a DVD of an old video I use to have and found it easily on your website. The DVD came within a couple of days. Thank you for your prompt service. - posted by Tona on 8/18/2011
Just as good as I remember!
I had Callanetics on VHS years ago. Loved it and almost knew it by heart. It really did the job! It still does, but I’ve lost so much muscle strength, but, no doubt my muscles will be back in shape in no time with this DVD. Yes, it looks a bit old but it works! - posted by Monica on 8/8/2011
Back and neck injuries
In 1987 I had a severe injury from a fall from a corral fence landed sitting. That jammed the back clear to my neck. I was told of the callenetics exercise at that time and combined the chiropractor adjustments with the callenetics exercise and had fantastic results over a period of time. I was so happy to find the DVD you offered and am refreshing my memory of the exercises. I look forward to having great results again. Thank you, Callen - posted by Marsha on 6/24/2011

Reading a Time Graph
X
Each workout shows a time graph of the workout sequence, from beginning to end. For example, this workout starts with a 10-minute warm-up and ends with a 10-minute stretch. In between, you'll do aerobics, then toning, then a cooldown.

Segments that include both aerobics & toning
Some workouts combine aerobics and toning. If the aerobics and toning are done at the same time, you'll see a "blended" graph. If the aerobics and toning are done in short, alternating intervals, you'll see an "interval" graph.
